Certification and AccreditationAn overviewAccreditation is a vital part of our work at EBU, as it ensures that our students, candidates and graduates havemet specific standards for learning, experience and professional outcomes.For your understanding, Accreditation is a quality assurance process that colleges, universities and educationinstitutions or programs undergo to confirm that they meet a strict and recognized set of service and operationalstandards.Accreditation is assessed by private, nongovernmental accrediting agencies that have been created specifically toreview education institutions and programs. These external college accreditation agencies are reviewed andrecognized by different entities relative to the geographic location of the country.In the United States accreditation is voluntary. Colleges do not need accreditation in order to open their doors oroffer educational programs. All EBU programs are accredited by the UK accreditation agency AccreditationService for Certifying Bodies (ASCB).In Europe the Lisbon Recognition Convention (LRC) is the regulatory framework for international academicrecognition in the European region. See: http://eurorecognition.eu/Manual/EAR%20HEI.pdfEBU benchmarks QAA standards: See: rk-statementsand the European Qualifications Framework (EQF) See: ageThe European Union and thereby the Council of Europe does not recognize any higher education institutions.Institutional recognition is within the competence of national authorities.The importance of accreditation will be dependent on your academic and professional goals. If you plan onentering the private sector, accreditation will not play and important role. This is also generally the case for aterminal degree such as a PhD or DBA where credits do not need to be transferred.Accreditation aims to ensure accountability of schools and degree programs which boosts public trust andconfidence. When an institution or degree program is properly accredited, you are able to gauge its overall qualitywithout having to conduct a detailed analysis on your own.We invite you to independently audit a course and do your own due diligence on EBU by following the aboveand below links: Audit request to admission@ebu.luAll EBU programs are accredited by the ASCBAll European Business University of Luxembourg Degrees and Diplomas in the following programs areUK ASCB accredited;1)2)3)4)5)6)7)Executive Bachelor of Business Administration (EBBA)Bachelor of Science in Blockchain Digital Ledger Technologies (BSc.)Master of Business Administration (MBA)Master of Science in Finance (MSc.)Master of Science in Data Science and AI (MSc.)Doctor of Business Administration (DBA)Master of Education (M.Ed)EBU is not Government of Luxembourg, Ministry of up/Accreditations/index.htmlThe research branch of EBU is The European University of Luxembourg, Sàrl, a Ministry of EconomyAccredited Research Institute See: vee.htmlPage 2
